Solex Energy on Monday reported 66% decline in consolidated net profit to ₹8.26 crore for June quarter FY27 due to the impact of higher depreciation, finance cost and expensive working capital.
In the year-ago period, the net profit was ₹24.71 crore, a company statement said. Total revenue increased to ₹265.63 crore from ₹261.05 crore a year ago.
"Alongside the EBITDA movement, the comparison reflects the full-quarter impact of depreciation at ₹101.9 million (Rs 42.7 million in Q1 FY26) and finance cost at ₹124.8 million (Rs 54.1 million in Q1 FY26), following the commissioning of Line 3 and Line 4 in November 2025 and higher working capital deployment during the quarter," the company said.
